Virginia-Florida State football game postponed

The Atlantic Coast Conference announced that today’s Virginia at Florida State football game has been postponed.

Oone positive COVID-19 test, and then subsequent contact tracing, led to the postponement.

“Our team underwent the mandated third-party testing yesterday and learned late last night that we had one positive test. Contact tracing this morning determined that, with opt-outs and injuries, we had just 44 scholarship players for the game, with some position groups depleted almost entirely,” FSU Director of Athletics David Coburn said.

“We deeply regret that many Florida State and Virginia fans have already traveled to the game, as well as Virginia’s team. We simply had no way of knowing we would not be playing until this morning. We made every effort to play, but we could not do so in a way that was safe for the players.”

More details regarding the rescheduled game, including ticket information, will be announced at a later date.
